1. Cut bell peppers into four large slices, discarding the seeds. Toss with a little olive, salt and pepper. Roast at 425° until tender and lightly charred, about 25 minutes. Cool, chop, and add to a large bowl.

2. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Trim green beans and cut into halves, on the diagonal. Blanch in salted water until just tender, about 2 minutes. Shock in a large bowl of ice water. Drain well and spread out on a towel to dry. Pat dry and add to the bowl with the peppers.

3. Rinse and drain the chickpeas. Pat dry. Add to the bowl with green beans and roasted pepper.

4. Add in the feta, parsley, and walnuts.

5. In a small bowl, whisk the Dijon with the red wine vinegar. Slowly whisk in 4 Tbsp of the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss all ingredients with the vinaigrette and serve at room temperature.

Notes

*Never buy pre-crumbled feta. It has unnecessary additives and preservatives to keep it fresh. Simply purchase fresh pasteurized feta, and organic if possible. It's easy to crumble on your own.
